That's disappointing that he is not as incorrupt as was implied when he was exhumed. I remember the cardinal or bishop who presided over the ceremony when Padre Pio was exhumed was talking about how his hands looked as if he had just had a manicure. I suppose not!
I can respect that he has a mask on so that his body is a seemly object of veneration for the faithful. But I can't help but think that it would be better if there were no mask or if the body were not on display; people should see the hard fact of mortality.
Padre Pio died and his earthly remains are decaying - so it will be for all of us. But his soul is in heaven! That is what counts; that is what we should focus on.
I HAVE GREAT DEVOTION TO ST PADRE PIO . AS HIS BODY IS INCORRUPT , GOD HAS A SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR US .MAY SAINT PADRE PIO HELP US TO FOLLOW JESUS MORE CLOSELY.
Wow. I wonder how long it ordinarily takes for a corpse to fully decay...
ReplyDeleteSo he's not incorrupt. His fingers are black, his face is gone...
